Day 107

Time once again to do an update on my Perfect 10. I really can't believe how fast time is going which only makes me happier that I haven't put this journey off anymore.

Work out at least 6 days a week... I did 6 days this week! Though now that I am going to the gym I might go back down to 5. We will see.

* Do 30 push ups a day & sit up's (yes they will be girly push ups)... Not doing these. Really have spaced them out of my mind. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can remind myself?

* Eat fruit & veggies everyday... I am still doing good here. I thought that I might have some issues with Chris being gone because I am not cooking anymore but I am still getting everything in!

* Drink at least 48oz. of WATER a day...Totally knocking this one out of the water(haha). I am drinking more then 48oz a day! I guess when you really aren't that into tea or coffee you don't have any other choice!

*Workout twice a day... Not happening and I really don't see it happening. When I first made this up I had no way to get to the gym and after talking to Marcelle and going to the gym with her I realized that I needed to do 2 videos a day to do anything. Now I am going to the gym. Pushing myself and I have no desire right now to do them as my second workout.

Something that you may not know about me is do not like chocolate & most sweets. I can pass them up any day of the week. They have never been a weakness for me. In fact I have only tried Butterfingers, Paydays, Reese's, Skor & M &M'S(of course only the peanut butter and peanut ones). Swear on everything I have never tried any other candy bars. Most look utterly disgusting. Eatting a candy bar takes me forever because it is to sweet. As for all the other sweets. I only like certain Jolly Ranchers & Watermelon Sour Patch.So I am thinking my problem with weight is portion size.

I'm with you on the chocolate thing... I like Heath bars every once in while... Almond Joys sometimes (which makes no sense since I don't like chocolate, coconut, or almonds, but whatev, haha)... and the occasional Butterfinger. But literally, I MIGHT eat one of those a year, if that. I never crave it (and even though I LOVE my mom's cookies/ brownies/ cinnamon rolls/ whatever-she-bakes-because-she-is-a-baking-GENIUS) I can still always pass in a heartbeat because it's just too sweet (plus now there's the gluten thing, le sigh).

About Me

I am stationed in Germany with my husband and daughter. The Army likes to throw curve balls but I am adapting to this new journey as best I can. In my twenty's and trying to hit some goals before my thirty's.
